Question on Vaelric HD for Genesis 9 skin textures

Does he come with the 5 oclock shadow beard that is shown in all the promos or is his face clean shaven?

    Ha,  i was just doing a render!  He ships completely clean shaven.  In my render, I swapped out his brows, added hair and beard and changed eye color.

    thanks. I wish they wouldn't show stuff on products that isn't there.  This one is even worse as every image has the whiskers, there is not a one showing clean shaven.

    It is funny, I didn't even notice the 5 o'clock shadow.  Generally, people have historically prefered skin with no hair is Daz figures so I assumed it didn't come with facial hair.  Ironically, I was going to make some 5 o'clock shadow lie's since it is faily trivial to do so!

    Absolutely agree on this, it's such a nuisance having to find out in the forums or elsewhere. What is the thinking behind this? I'm always thankful for people  jumping in and doing real quick renders!

    I have been here since the Pre-Daz3D/Zygote days and, maybe because I was a precosious reader, but I always assume that the written discription is the final say in what is in the product.  Everything else is mere advertising. I have been known to go to the readme using the product number if I am confused.  My advice is to never shop visually.

    Her I used CGI Frederic's beard:

    I don't assume anymore after I bought a product with both female and male version, and the female had baked in facial hair too...

    True, granted I have seen women in real life with facial hair, arm hair, and leg hair. I believe this is a new vendor and so is learning the the nuances of the available merchant resources and how Daz3d customers prefers advertising so I am personally granting some grace here.

    that looks good for sure. I usually do the research more on products but this one, with every promo showing the whiskers, I did assume it came that way, which overall looks mighty fine to me.

    The promos should have been more accurate so you weren't at fault.  Fortunately, stubble is as common as clothing with inexplicable holes in the Daz universe.
